Hey!

FALL 1990, SEOUL

They say I was always different from the other kids.

Whatever the object was,

I wanted to take it apart and understand what was hiding inside.

Sewon!

Sewon, can you please explain to me why you did that?

Sewon!

What's the matter?

Did you do this?

It's okay. Wait for me here.

Mrs. Koh, he might have been curious

about what was inside the fire extinguisher.

But the problem here is

that while all the other children were screaming and crying all around...

Sewon just kept on playing like there was nothing wrong at all.

I'm very sorry.

I'll talk to him about it when we get home.

I'm afraid that we're far beyond that now.

He needs professional attention.

Sewon isn't really able to feel things.

He has no empathy.

I'm sure you...

I'm sure that you...

Even if you can't smile or cry, I know that you...

I know that you can feel everything too.

I'm always going to be by your side.

Don't you worry, okay?

Stop that.

Did you solve it all by yourself?

You're so smart!

Can we solve another cube together?

You don't want to?

Then how about we play with dice?

His cognitive skills have improved greatly over the past two months,

but as far as social skills are concerned, there's been no progress.

What does that mean exactly?

Daily routines won't be an issue.

However, having a social life will be hard.

We'll need to see him more often and perform an occasional brain scan.

Let's see here...

Ah, here it is.

There is a new program that started at our hospital.

I'll find out if I can secure a spot for you.

Take your time and think about it.

WHAT IS AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER (ASD)?

₩1,000,000 PER MONTH

He saw his mother die right in front of him,

but he shows no signs of distress or any kind of emotion.

This is an MRI of his brain, and as you can see,

the distance between his hippocampus and amygdala is too far apart.

His memory is excellent,

but he does not display any emotional reaction to those memories.

You must be Sewon.

Do you remember what happened?

Can you tell me about the accident?

Short version, or long one?

What's the short version, and what's the long version?

The short version is that my mom was standing and got hit by a truck.

What about the long one?

A man in a blue hat, his eyes opened wide, and then a crash.

The windshield of the truck looked like a spider web.

Seoul 7 GA 1947.

You remember the license plate number?

White powder and white shards spread like water over my mom's head.

And then my mom's mouth moved, and then she said something...

Your mother spoke?

What did she say?

Sewon.

"Sewon."

That child has an extremely unique brain structure.

Just look at the ratio of his hippocampus to the amygdala.

His hippocampus is twice the size of an average child's,

but his amygdala is only a quarter of it.

He has a brain structure worthy of a case study.

I'm very curious to see how his brain develops.

Mom said that she'd always be by my side.

But after she said that,

she left me.

From then on, I've always wanted to know the human mind...

My insatiable curiosity gave way to brain research.

Unlocking what was inside the brains of others became an obsession.

PRESENT DAY

Now, please welcome Dr. Sewon Koh for his presentation.

We all have the desire to understand what people are thinking or feeling.

What started as a question, born out of curiosity

has developed into synchronization of brain waves,

achieved via quantum entanglement.

But wouldn't that entail access to memories?

Or even access to one's thoughts?

It doesn't matter how complicated the brain is,

since neurons just use electricity to communicate.

Now we can analyze the changes of these signals

and probe the depths of consciousness in ways we've never seen before.

I get the connections with brain waves,

but why understand the language?

First, let's talk about the medical aspect,

which concerns life and death.

We can help patients with brain disease,

those who cannot communicate, or those who suffer from severe dementia.

We would also be able to extract the thoughts of a comatose patient,

which could potentially lead to a diagnosis and subsequent treatment.

The day may come when we will be able to communicate

solely through thoughts and without language.

So you're saying that you're trying to hack into the human brain?

That would be correct.

This could have several uses in the medical field.

Though aspects of your research clearly disregard fundamental issues.

For example, if all of your thoughts are unfiltered,

can you imagine how seriously disturbing that would be?

Yes, brain synchronization might present human rights dilemmas,

and certainly has a risk of being abused.

Therefore, it's critical that before we establish the actual system,

stringent laws and proper protocols must be enacted to avoid such matters.

In a few months' time, my pilot experiment will be proof to you all.

Thank you for your time.

Hello, Dr. Sewon Koh.

My name is Jiwoo Hong. I report for Science Magazine.

Thank you for your presentation.

Oh, yes. Thank you.

So, off the record, of course,

I was wondering if I could ask you some questions I've been curious about.

Sure, go right ahead.

Is your research at all driven by any kind of personal interest?

Are you asking me what my personal motives are?

Yes.

Well, it seems only natural to wonder what other people are thinking, no?

Our family, friends, wife, or children.

We want to know what's going on in their minds...

A neurologist would be fascinated with the subject alone,

without involving any personal motives.

Yes, of course.

You see, as a journalist, I always make sure

to do as much homework as I can on people of interest, such as yourself.

I discovered that your mother was killed in a car accident when you were a boy.

I also learned things about your wife and son.

Could what happened to them be your personal motives?

My condolences. Very sorry to hear about that.

I take special interest in what personal motives

drive accomplishments, big or small.

I've even written articles on the topic.

I don't know.

Can a civilization exist without ambition?

Please excuse me. Sorry, I'm late. It's been a pleasure.

Here are the test subjects. They've been anesthetized.

Subject 72 has a normal brain.

Subject has learned through training where to find the food.

Subject 32 is untrained.

It has no knowledge of what's at the end of the maze.

Synchronization test number 32.

Our objective, transfer memories of the white mouse to the black mouse.

Initiating brain sync between the mice while still anesthetized.

Let's raise the frequency.

Raised by 1.5.

Raise it by three.

Test 32 concluded.

Synchronization failed.

Good evening.

Don't you think you need a break?

Why's that?

You're pushing yourself pretty hard.

- Namil, we're going out for drinks. - Oh, yeah?

- Sewon, you wanna to join us for a-- - I'll pass.

You're too nice.

Why even bother?

You can keep trying,

but he won't really care, so there's no point.

Still, we should try to be friendly.

Showing some humanity sure wouldn't hurt.

So what's the point of being humane to a man who isn't even human?

Yeah!

You know, what's really weird,

is how he can show zero emotion after such a loss.

Can we be more discreet? We're all family.

Hey, Dr. Koh!

How about a drink?

No, thank you.

Come on...

A man needs to relieve his stress with a drink on a day like this.

Forget it.

I don't know why I even bother.

Don't you have any friends to hang with on a rainy day like today?

I don't.

I had a wife and son...

I always knew I couldn't be a typical husband or dad.

But occasionally, I felt like I was living a normal life.

But I was mistaken.

What was that?

Mika!

- Get rid of it. - What?

Get rid of the cat.

It makes a mess of everything.

We can't.

We need Mika for Doyoon.

You know that Mika is Doyoon's only friend.

Please, Sewon.

They help with empathy, communication, and social skills.

Doyoon could seriously benefit from a program like this.

He doesn't need that.

I was like Doyoon when I was young.

I'm doing just fine with every aspect of my life.

I get along with colleagues fine too.

All I want is for my little boy to be a little more ordinary.

Then, the unthinkable happened.

After losing our son, my wife began to gradually change.

She refused to accept his death.

What are you doing?

I told you to get rid of it.

And I already told you that cat is Doyoon's only friend!

What's wrong with you?

Doyoon is dead.

Doyoon is not dead!

He died in the fire. We recovered his body.

You're being unreasonable.

You need to accept reality.

Our son is clearly... dead.

My wife just kept repeating that our son was alive.

I couldn't accept what she was becoming.

Someone get the monitor and get an IV going!

- Is the monitor ready? - Yes.

Check for a pulse.

Epinephrine, stat!

In the end, I wasn't able to protect my son or my wife.

Test 37 concluded.

After the death of Subject 77,

a complete transfer to Subject 37 occurred.

Brain-wave sync successful.

The experiment was successful because the mouse died.

There can be memory retrieval only if the brain sync subject is deceased.

I need a clinical trial.

You want a trial?

Yes.

I need a fresh corpse as well.

You know how fast neurons decay without proper blood flow.

For brains to sync, I would need a recently deceased human body,

one that died within 36 hours.

Tell me you're not asking for a human subject, Sewon...

Let's say I manage to get you one...

Then who would be the recipient?

Me.

You think you'll find a better test subject?

First, I'd need a dissertation draft of your results,

but I doubt the institutional review board would approve.

You'd have to collate the results of the pilot experiment,

which we would need to review.

And we'd need follow-up measures.

Just bring me the results.

The experiment means nothing if it's a secret.

But that'll take at least two years.

I only need one day.

Find me a body.

You must be crazy.

Go back to work. I won't even consider it.

What? It works because one of them died?

That's why I need a body.

Look, that's great and all,

but you can't go to human trials just because it worked with mice.

Which is why we need a corpse.

But you're saying you'll be the recipient as well.

No way! That could be very dangerous.

It doesn't matter.

If we succeed, we can come up with a protocol

that will work on someone conscious or in a coma.

Look, I mean... How can this work if you rush it?

Calm down and maybe take your time with the experiment.

I've asked the clinical team, but they refused.

I need an alternative.

You have access to the morgue, am I right?

No way! No, I won't!

And you shouldn't even be thinking about it either.

- Even if the test was successful-- - I've made my decision.

So, are you in?

Wait, hold on!

If you want it that badly...

I think I have an idea.

Who's there?

- Who are you? - Excuse me!

I'm Dr. Hong...

Oh, yes! How have you been?

I'm so sorry.

I should have told you. We doctors keep some strange hours.

- Yes, of course. - Then, we'll get going.

However... Where are you going?

Well, to the morgue.

- Oh, I see. - Thanks so much.

He has severe facial injuries...

But there was no brain damage.

It was internal bleeding from a car accident that killed him.

Let's start.

Sewon.

Sewon!

Hey!

Hey, Sewon!

Damn it!

Sewon!

Hey!

Wake up!

Sewon!

Dr. Koh!

Come on!

I thought that you died!

Get off me.

You okay?

I might have seen something...

Is that important right now? You were dead a second ago!

You can't be serious right now!

You really can't remember anything?

No.

Bye...

Yeah?

I thought about it, and...

We need to increase the theta frequency

to about 2.1 second intervals.

All right...

Dr. Sewon Koh.

Senior Researcher at B.C. Brain Center.

And you are?

PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR KANGMU LEE

Are you with a detective agency?

Yeah... "Detective agency".

You could say that I deal with sensitive issues for my clients.

Do you know Junki Lim?

I'm afraid not.

Seems you've found the wrong guy.

Jaeyi Jung.

I'd like to find out what happened to your wife, Jaeyi Jung.

What happened, Doctor?

Why are you asking me about my wife?

Mr. Lim is a client of mine.

And he would like to know what happened to your wife.

Junki Lim?

I've no idea who that is, and you're on private property.

I suggest you leave.

Okay.

I'll be seeing you.

I'm always going to be by your side.

My name is Taesuk Myung.

I study the brain, you know.

Sewon.

And it's safer that way!

- Sewon Koh? - Yes, that's right.

I'm Lieutenant Jiun Choi from the ST Unit.

We have a few questions. Can we come in?

What's going on? It's pretty early.

Are you Jaeyi Jung's husband?

I would like to have a word with her.

BRAIN SCIENCE RESEARCH AWARD

It doesn't seem like your wife is home today.

What's going on here?

Any chance you know a man named Junki Lim?

I don't.

Are you sure?

I think Junki Lim was close to your wife for a long time.

And then yesterday, he was found murdered.

- What? - Thursday, March 12th.

Can you tell us where you were and what you were doing?

I was at home.

And can anyone confirm that?

Perhaps your wife can?

Are you accusing me of murder because some dead guy knew my wife?

I never said I was accusing you of anything.

In any case, let your wife know.

We'll be in touch soon.

Do you know Junki Lim?

JOKWANG SECURITY GWANGRYEOL AHN

His name is Junki Lim.

He was murdered two days ago.

Yes, of course.

You'll be well compensated.

Yeah.

A man died.

The police think I'm a suspect because he was close to Jaeyi.

I need to find out why everyone keeps asking me if I know that man.

This can't take more than an hour.

JUNKI LIM, MALE, AGE 38 BRAIN HEMORRHAGE, HEAD TRAUMA

Heejin!

Come, baby.

Careful, careful!

Peekaboo!

I want to put him in my treasure box.

During the synchronization

my heartbeat seems to have remained stable.

Brain waves and all vitals were normal.

But it's unclear whether the test was a success or not.

I may have gotten a glimpse into some of his memories.

But I can't recall any of them clearly.

My memory has always been... infallible.

So why can't I recall his memories?

Hey, I'm gonna grab something to eat. Wanna join?

I guess not.

Wait! I mean... I'll go. Have to eat at some point, right?

Bye, guys.

Was that Dr. Koh?

TRADITIONAL JAPANESE CUISINE HARU

- Hello. - Hello, how are you?

Namil, sit over here.

- You like sashimi, right? - Yes, but it's raining.

But sure...

Okay, we'll do...

The sashimi plate and some beer.

What?

Well, this is new!

Never seen you with anyone here, let alone drink.

I never thought I'd see you drink. I'm surprised.

Uh, yeah...

I just feel like a drink for some reason.

Maybe it's the rain.

Yeah, sure.

"Looking into memories and thoughts by scanning a person's brain.

"Brain wave synchronization possible through quantum entanglement."

FIVE-YEAR-OLD DIES IN GAS EXPLOSION

The victim, Junki Lim.

His lover, Jaeyi Jung.

FIND JAEYI JUNG, THE WIFE!

Hey, Sewon.

Have you always been left-handed?

1. I AM RIGHT-HANDED.

Brain sync not only transfers memories...

2. I DO NOT LIKE ALCOHOL.

...but also habits and quirks of the deceased.

3. I DO NOT ENJOY LISTENING TO MUSIC.

I need to separate what is mine from what belongs

to those who have died.

Oh... I forgot my umbrella.

Don't worry. I won't bother you.

What's that?

Is that your bio?

A bit bored, are we?

Or maybe doing a self-help questionnaire?

Dr. Koh, you drink coffee now?

Good point.

4. I DO NOT LIKE COFFEE.

See you. Don't work too hard.

5. I'M NOT FRIENDS WITH DR. NOH.

Who's there?

Dr. Noh?

Weird things are happening after syncing with the dead.

I'm experiencing strange feelings for the first time.

And...

I'm seeing things, and I don't know what they are.

What the hell? You almost killed me!

This could be a side effect of my brain waves

colliding with the deceased.

This has to be a hallucination, just a brain sync side-effect.

The memories of the dead are creating these illusions.

I need to strip them away and look into the actual memories.

Doyoon isn't dead.

Wait...

What do you mean?

Doyoon?

My son Doyoon is alive?

That girl said the same thing as Jaeyi.

That Doyoon is alive.

Why did Jaeyi believe that?

There is only one way to find out.

I--

I didn't believe you.

I'm sorry.

I think you were right.

Jaeyi, please help me.

Do you know where our Doyoon is?

Could he really be alive?

Show me what you know.

Sewon.

What time is it?

You can sleep some more.

Where's Doyoon?

He's gone.

Huh?

Can you look for him?

There you are!

Is that fun?

Careful!

We got you now!

Doyoon.

Mika looks upset we're having fun without her.

Mika!

Mika!

Looks like Doyoon is going outside.

Jaeyi.

Doyoon is going out the gate.

Doyoon!

Don't go after him. Stay here.

Doyoon just left though...

Why won't you...

- Jaeyi... - listen!

Why is it so hard for you to just listen?

Doyoon is out there all alone!

And it's better that way!

The farther away he is from you, the better! You hear me?

Jaeyi...

Jaeyi.

What's the matter? Huh?

Honey.

Please...

Find our Doyoon.

Jaeyi!

Brain sync attempt.

LIA, 6.9 hertz. Stimulation interval, 2.1 seconds.

Brain sync was successful for a brief moment.

Sync aborted due to a seizure in the subject's temporal lobe.

The memories accessed were...

It's better that way!

They felt like dreams or fantasies.

Perhaps they were hallucinations reflecting Jaeyi's psyche.

Most probably because the brain waves of the living

are much more difficult to control and interpret than those of the dead.

Executing a brain sync with the living is most unstable...

...and dangerous.

Until I can find a solution...

No more attempts will be made.

Don't you worry.

I promise to find Doyoon another way.

DR. BRAIN

Yes?

Hey, I was just worried because you're not at work.

- How are you feeling? - I'm fine.

I'm just staying home today.

Really? All right.

Let me know immediately if you feel weird or--

I'll call you later.

Oh...

Oh, you're home?

Did something happen to Jaeyi?

No, I just wanted to work from home today. That's all.

Oh, I see. I'll be downstairs then.

You have some explaining to do.

Why wouldn't you tell us that your wife tried to commit suicide?

Is it a problem if I don't share my personal business with you?

It is when you're clearly doing it to avoid suspicion.

Why would I purposefully incriminate myself?

Your wife attempted suicide. And a man she was close to was murdered.

And her husband is still trying to hide something.

I have to say, this reminds me of Occam's razor.

The theory states that the easiest explanation is the most likely.

A husband knew his wife was cheating, so--

So of course, I must have killed my wife out of jealousy.

And naturally, her lover as well.

I think you brought your wife home

to finish the job you set out to do in the first place.

That's a good point.

So see for yourself.

If I wanted my wife dead...

then why would I bother doing this?

I don't know why you're keeping your wife like this, but...

This doesn't mean you're free of suspicion.

You're still a suspect for murdering Junki Lim.

We'll be back.

Mika!

Mika!

Hey, kid! Kid!

Heejin!

Heejin, don't go in there.

Heejin, come here.

The brain sync with Jaeyi wasn't a complete failure.

Traces of her memory are clear.

The little girl I saw...

came to our house with Junki Lim.

1. LIM AND JAEYI WERE CLOSE.

Heejin?

I think Heejin is Junki Lim's daughter.

I have to find this girl who saw Doyoon.

Can't say I expected you to call.

Why did Junki Lim tell you to look into me?

He was under the impression that you killed your wife.

By the way, did you kill my client too?

I had absolutely no clue who Junki Lim was until I met you.

All right, relax...

So then, tell me why I'm here.

My wife and that man...

How did they meet exactly?

The info I gave you earlier was for free.

If you want more, you'll have to hire me.

If I do...

will you find out what was really going on between those two?

Come on. That's what I do.

All right, fine. You're hired.

They met at this special clinic

for children with issues, who have trouble communicating.

A special clinic for children?

Daddy!

Daddy!

Heejin.

Hey, say hello. This is Jaeyi and Doyoon.

- Hello, nice to meet you. - Hello there.

Hi.

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!

Doyoon, are you ready?

I told her not to take Doyoon there.

Not as obedient as you thought she was, huh?

Let's take a walk.

Where is Heejin now?

You don't know Lim, but you know his kid's name?

It's a long story.

Do you know where she might be?

No.

I assume she's with a relative now that her father's dead.

What's so important about her?

I think she knows something about my son.

The one who died in that fire?

Just how much do you know about me?

And how do you know about that?

It's my job to know things, all right?

Let's go to Junki's house.

Go straight, turn right at the intersection,

and keep going.

You'll see a white wooden house.

That's Lim's house.

What exactly do you need to find out about your son?

Was there anything strange about his death?

Or...

do you have regrets about anything?

Something you wish you hadn't done?

Regret is...

...a futile emotion.

Can any father-son relationship be without regrets?

I lost touch with my father a very long time ago.

Turns out the things we fought about then really didn't matter.

I don't want to hear it.

I don't need to know about your personal life.

Yeah...

We're gonna get along just fine.

What the hell? How'd you know the code?

What's wrong?

Hey! You all right?

Abdomen, solar plexus, and here at the neck.

The fatal blow must have been to the neck.

Sure looks that way, but take a look.

This stab here is what killed him instantly.

It pierced through his liver, stomach, and aorta into the lumbar vertebrae.

He would've been instantly paralyzed.

But they also stabbed the neck then went for the chest too...

...eliminating any chance of survival.

What did they use?

It's no ordinary weapon, that's for sure.

These knives are about twenty-two centimeters long.

And the killer was an expert at handling these knives.

Three perfect strikes.

Your killer is skillful.

So a professional hit?

Or maybe it was a doctor with serious medical knowledge?

Is your main suspect a doctor then?

Well, then here's something even more surprising.

If this here is film noir,

then this part is mystery.

Take a look at this.

You see this hole?

Huh?

This hole was made long after he died.

What's bizarre here,

is that this was an extremely delicate procedure.

It was done with great care on a person who was long dead.

So, that's my story.

So you're saying...

Lim's memories are somehow now inside your head?

And Lim's daughter, Heejin, told you your son's still alive?

Something like that.

Do you do drugs?

Forget that brain sync bullshit.

They're more likely to believe that you killed Lim,

seeing as you knew the code to his house.

I knew you wouldn't believe me.

Listen, Dr. Koh.

It doesn't matter what I believe or not.

If what you say is true, why are we here?

If you have Lim and Jaeyi's memories,

you should know how it all went down, isn't that right?

Memories can't be controlled like that.

It's nothing like recalling the past or trying to remember a phone number.

All these different memories are tangled up in my head now.

I can't really tell them apart just yet.

So you have the memories, but you can't control them yet?

- Right. - I see.

Okay, let's say that's true.

What can help you recall the info you need?

I'm not sure. Not yet.

But I believe that certain places, objects, and smells or touch...

...all seem to intensify the memories.

Like what just happened.

How about we scan your brain then, Doc?

Pause it.

This is just getting spooky now.

This kind of behavior isn't bold. It's insane.

We met him that day.

He denied ever knowing Lim, but then came straight here?

What a total psycho.

This guy is seriously dangerous.

Where do we go to ask about this kid?

What's this?

Did that girl draw all this?

She's an extremely rare case.

Born near genius, but has developmental issues.

It's Mika. Doyoon's cat.

Yeah.

You have to take care of Mika from now on.

Why?

Well...

Doyoon isn't with us. Not anymore.

Where is he then?

He lives in heaven now.

But Doyoon's not dead.

I saw him this morning.

- Huh? - Heejin...

- Heejin, what did you say? - Jaeyi.

Heejin sometimes talks about things

that she imagined or dreamed as if they were real.

She doesn't understand the concept of death yet.

So, Heejin...

Where did you see him? Tell me.

Did you see something again?

I want to put Mika in my treasure box.

Ah, that's going to be tricky.

Mika is a living, breathing creature. Mika needs water and sunlight.

"Grandma"?

FROM: PYEONGTAEK-SI MIJAN-MYEON 54-GIL 61914

There's an address.

Good evening.

What are you doing?

What is it?

There's a dead cat.

Mika?

It's my son's cat.

Looks like it got hit by a car.

Rigor mortis hasn't set in yet.

And her body's still warm.

What is it?

Are you burying it?

I'm going to brain sync with her.

What?

You can't be serious.

You want to do what with that dead cat?

I think she might have seen the killer.

Or more importantly, she could've seen what happened to my son.

I really think we're better off checking out the grandma's house.

No.

I'm syncing with Mika.

If we wait too long to synchronize, her neurons will be too deteriorated.

You must be Heejin.

You should get out here. They don't let outsiders in the lab.

No point in wasting more time then.

I'll go visit the grandmother.

No, I'm gonna go see her.

Can't you trust me?

I have something important to ask her.

Fine. I'm not really sure I trust you either.

I'll reach out to my informant about Lim's autopsy, all right?

- He might tell me something useful. - Fine.

Let's talk tomorrow, around...

Wait, when did this piece of junk die?

Anyway, I'll be in touch.

Are you really doing a brain sync with that cat?

Yes.

I'm sure she saw something.

You're most definitely off your rocker.

- Mika. - Mika!

Good girl.

Sewon!

Sewon!

Are you okay?

- What time is it? - About 7:30.

Sewon, what happened?

Over there.

Mika, the cat...

Oh my God!

Can you put her in the freezer...

And clean this place up for me?

Wait a minute...

It wasn't a human perspective...

54-GIL, MIJAN-MYEON, PYEONGTAEK CITY

Since feline visual fields are different,

I saw strange and indistinguishable phenomena

and heard sharp noises.

I think I saw someone attacking Junki Lim, but...

I couldn't identify him.

Excuse me, what happened?

Why? Are you a journalist?

No, I'm not.

I was just passing by and stopped to admire the view.

Oh.

They say that the old woman who lives here,

her son and her granddaughter from Seoul, all just vanished.

Goodness, can you imagine how shocked her husband must've been

when he saw that the house was ransacked?

- At least the cops came immediately. - Yeah.

They've been searching all night but can't find any clues.

How can something like this happen?

That family must be cursed. Her son-in-law died a little while ago.

Stop it!

Anyway, there isn't much to see around here.

But if you go down that way, you'll see a creek and a temple.

Thanks.

My goodness...

I hope nothing serious happened.

The child has gone missing.

Terrible things keep happening.

Where did the girl disappear to?

I don't know what to do anymore.

- Wow! - Nice catch!

- Did you see that? - Wow!

Dynamic visual acuity!

Hey! Sir, over here!

Sir, can you throw us the ball?

This is feline vision.

Have feline traits been transferred to me, just like Lim's?

Oh, goodness!

2046.

05 NA 2046

- Yes? - This is Sewon Koh.

Dr. Koh?

I need a favor.

Could you run a license plate for me?

Dr. Koh, if you have something to say, come into the station.

I know that Lim's daughter, Heejin, and her whole family have disappeared.

How do you know that?

I was just at her grandmother's house.

If you agree to help me,

then there's a chance I might be able to find her.

You have to run the license plate.

I think I saw that same car.

It was in front of the house when Lim was killed.

05 NA 2046.

Please.

So what if Dr. Koh is also responsible for Heejin's disappearance?

It's quite possible.

But why is he asking me for a favor then?

What could he be up to?

KANGMU LEE POLICE ACADEMY GRADUATE

HOMICIDE POLICE DETECTIVE BECOMES A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR

What the hell?

LIEUTENANT JIUN CHOI

Yes?

Dr. Koh, this is Lieutenant Choi.

We found the owner of the car you were talking about.

The name is Kangmu Lee.

He's an ex-cop turned private investigator.

Do you know him?

Are you saying Lim's killer is...

Kangmu Lee?

That's impossible.

What are you talking about?

Kangmu Lee has been dead for four days now.

He died before Lim was killed.

That car was scrapped the day we found him dead.

Are you there?

Dr. Koh?

Hold on.

I have to call you back.

Who is it?

It's Kangmu Lee.
